Dragging its tail in the sea
Verse:
There's a concert hall in Vienna
Where your mouth had a thousand reviews
There's a bar where the boys have stopped talking
They've been sentenced to death by the blues
But who is it climbs to your picture
With a garland of freshly cut tears?
Refrain 1:
Aey, aey, aey, aey
Take this waltz, take this waltz
Take this waltz it's been dying for years
Verse:
There's an attic where children are playing
Where I've got to lie down with you soon
In a dream of Hungarian lanterns
In the mist of some sweet afternoon
And I'll see what you've chained to your sorrow
All your sheep and your lilies of snow
Refrain 2:
Aey, aey, aey, aey
Take this waltz, take this waltz
With its, I'll never forget you, you know
This waltz, this waltz, this waltz, this waltz
With its very own breath of brandy and death
Dragging its tail in the sea
And I'll dance with you in Vienna
I'll be wearing a river's disguise
The hyacinth wild on my shoulder
My mouth on the dew of your thighs
And I'll bury my soul in a scr*pbook
With the photographs there, and the moss
F G
And I'll yield to the flood of your beauty
F C
My cheap violin and my cross
Am
And you'll carry me down on your dancing
Dm A7 Dm
To the pools that you lift on your wrist
Refrain 1:
Oh my love, oh my love
Take this waltz, take this waltz
It's yours now, it's all that there is Bridge 1 + Bridge 3/Intro
